A bag of sugar weighs 3.50 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration isone-sixth

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

$F_{Earth}$ = 15.57 N

$F_{Moon}$ = 2.60 N

$F_{Uranus}$ = 16.98 N

The mass of the bag is the same on the three planets. m=1.59 kg

Explanation:

The weight of the sugar bag on Earth is:

g=9.81 m/s²

m=3.50 lb=1.59 kg

$F_{Earth}$ =m·g=1.59 kg×9.81 m/s²= 15.57 N

The weight of the sugar bag on the Moon is:

g=9.81 m/s²÷6= 1.635 m/s²

$F_{Moon}$ =m·g=1.59 kg× 1.635 m/s²= 2.60 N

The weight of the sugar bag on the Uranus is:

g=9.81 m/s²×1.09=10.69 m/s²

$F_{Uranus}$ =m·g=1.59 kg×10.69 m/s²= 16.98 N

The mass of the bag is the same on the three planets. m=1.59 kg

How do you convert seconds to minutes, seconds to hours , minutes to seconds and hours to seconds

Bess [88]

Answer:

You could memorize conversions, or use conversion charts, or do a quick internet search for help.

Explanation:

I'll do a few of the conversions for you

Seconds to minutes:

there are 60 seconds in one minute. So if you are wondering how many seconds are in 3 and 1/2 minutes, you would do this conversion:

60 sec/min times x sec/3.5 min

which can be written as 60 x 3.5 = 210. so "x" seconds would be 210 seconds in 3 1/2 minutes.

you could do the same thing in the opposite direction for minutes to seconds:

1 min has 60 seconds. So in 7.25 minutes, how many seconds are there?

1 min/60 sec times 7.25 min/x sec

which can be written as 7.25 x 60 = 435. so "x" seconds would be 435 seconds in 7.25 minutes.

hours to seconds:

this one is slightly more complicated

In one hour there are 60 minutes, and in one minute there are 60 seconds.

so to convert from hours to seconds you would do this conversion:

1 hr/60 min times 1 min/60 sec. then the "min" would cancel out, and you would be left with the label "hr/sec". to do the math, it would be 1 hr / 60 x 60.

60x60 = 3600. so you would have 1 hr/3600 sec. So in one hour there are 3600 seconds.

so if you want to know how many seconds are in 6.75 hours:

6.75 hr/x sec times 3600 sec/1 hr

6.75 x 3600 = 24,300 so there are 24,300 seconds in 6.75 hours.

I hope this helps :)

Two particles, with charges of 20.0 nC and -20.0 nC, are fixed at points with coordinates <0, 4.00 cm> and <0, -4.00 cm

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy of the system of charges

= 9 x 10⁹ x [ q₁q₂ / r₁₂ + q₂q₃ / r₂₃ + q₁q₃ / r₁₃ ]

here r₁₂ , r₂₃ , r₁₃ are distance between 1 st and 2 nd charge , 2 nd and 3 rd charge and fist and third charge.

r₁₂ = 8 cm , r₂₃ = 4 cm , r₁₃ = 4 cm.

q₁ = 20 x 10⁻⁹ C , q₂ = - 20 x 10⁻⁹ C , q₃ = 10 x 10⁻⁹ C

Potential energy = 9 x 10⁹ x [ - 400 x 10⁻¹⁸ / .08 + -200x10⁻¹⁸ / .04 + 200 x 10¹⁸ / .04 ]

= 9 x 10⁹ x - 400 x 10⁻¹⁸ / .08

= 45 x 10⁻⁶ J .

b)

Potential at the point of fourth charge due to three charges of 20 nC , - 20 nC and 10 nC at the centre

9 x 10⁹ [ 20 x 10⁻⁹ / .05 + - 20 x 10⁻⁹ / .05 + 10 x 10⁻⁹ / .03 ]

= 9 x 10⁹ x 10 x 10⁻⁹ / .03

= 3000 V .

potential energy of fourth particle = charge x potential

= 3000 x 40 x 10⁻⁹ = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J .

kinetic energy at infinity = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J

1/2 m v² = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J

.5 x 2 x 10⁻¹³ x v² = 12 x 10⁻⁵

v² = 12 x 10⁸

v = 3.46 x 10⁴ m/s

= 9 x 10⁹
